About FOG: Fog of War Walking Map
Walk, run, or ride, and the fog burns away wherever you pass. Forever. FOG turns your real life into the exploration screen of a strategy game: the more of the world you see with your own eyes, the more of the map you own.
FEATURES
• Fog of war for the real world: a living, rolling fog hides the map and clears permanently wherever you go
• Background exploring: turn it on and FOG keeps clearing fog while the app is closed; come back to "while you were away" progress
• Your character, Wander: a stick-figure explorer who earns new gear as you rank up, from Fogbound hatchling to Atlas
• Choose a path: Scholar, Ranger, Warrior, Mage, or Navigator
• Explorer ranks and stats: area unfogged, distance traveled, your exact share of Earth's surface
• The collection: every country, region and city you set foot in, kept as cards
• Fog colors: Midnight, Abyss, Violet, Ember, Slate
• Share your map: an abstract glowing render of everywhere you've been, with no streets or labels, so your home stays private
• Import your history: bring in Google Timeline or GPX and get credit for everywhere you have already been (FOG Unlimited)
• Export anytime: your entire trail as a standard GPX file, yours forever
PRIVACY, ACTUALLY
Your location history is the most sensitive data you have. FOG keeps all of it on your phone. Nothing is uploaded. No account, no cloud, no analytics, no ads, no trackers. The app doesn't even have a server to send anything to.
FREE AND UNLIMITED
FOG is free to explore with the Scholar and Ranger paths and your first ranks. FOG Unlimited is a single one-time purchase: all paths and gear, every rank, and history import. No subscription. Ever.
The world is unmapped until you walk it.
What’s new
Version 1.4.4 · Updated September 18, 2026
First street first: after the intro, FOG says walk to the corner and back. The fog clears where you go. Your history, today: the rank-up card and the walk card each mention FOG Unlimited once. Import Google Timeline or GPX and everywhere you have been is on the map today. Less battery: GPS-grade tracking on screen, off when the app leaves it. Background exploring batches its fixes and wakes a few times an hour.
User reviews
Finally, a fitness app that makes me want to leave the house I've tried every step counter and running app out there, and they all feel the same numbers going up, no reason to care. FOG is different. Turning the whole map into fog of war is such a simple idea but it completely rewires how I think about walking.
